The Traditional Deans Victorian Awning

Back in the 19th century, when Deans started, the traditional awning or shop blind was the only one available. The Victorian awning was a perfect product for the British weather and is still the only traditional sunblind that may be confidently used in all but the most severe weather conditions.

 

Deans Blinds still craft the wooden boxes for the Voctorian awnings in their Wandsworth capentry shop and they receive a finish comprising 5-coats of hand applied paint.

 

Our timber for the Victorian awnings comes from managed sources and only the most suitable grades are used. Special orders are taken for timber manufactured in specific woods if required.

 

Black iron arms are formed by hand in Deans workshop, to follow the contours of the building, and these link the Victorian blind to the wall via cast iron sockets called Cannons. The rollers contains steel springs of immense strength.

 

Having been here when Queen Victoria reigned Deans is the only blinds company that is still in business who can provide an authentic Victorian or Edwardian awning to complete the finishing touch to a serious restoration project on shop, restaurant or even a special private house.

 

 

Lifestyle changing patio awnings and patio sunblinds

The terms "blinds" and "awnings" are generally interchangeable in common use and the distinction between the two has become very vague. We have simply used the term patio awnings to describe all domestic external sun shade solutions.

For great value Deans cannot be beaten - we manufacture many of our products right here in our Wandsworth factory.

Patio Awnings

Retractable patio awnings are generally purchased for reasons of providing shade to prevent furnishings fading or reduce the temperature of the home or to provide an outside entertaining area. They can be of the flat sheet variety eg President patio awning , or traditional eg The Victorian awning or the canopy type eg The Dutch blind or canopy.

 

Pergola Style Awnings

 

These are a relatively new innovation and Deans are proud to exclusively distribute the Pergotenda terrace awning, which is installed on its own attractive Pergola style timber frame. This awning is ideal for extending covered areas and is able to withstand up to Force 8 winds, presenting an opportunity to extend the outside dining entertaining season into those normally inclement months.
